Comunidad Sustentable - CS
Existen en todo el mundo grupos y comunidades organizadas que disfrutan de una producción y un consumo solidario. Pero en general son experiencias aisladas que no cuentan con sistemas para conectarse, apoyarse y compartir saberes y productos
Existen en todo el mundo grupos y comunidades organizadas que disfrutan de una producción y un consumo solidario. Pero en general son experiencias aisladas que no cuentan con sistemas para conectarse, apoyarse y compartir saberes y productos
Una Comunidad Sustentable en su acepción más simple es un grupo de personas que con lo que producen o consiguen son capaces de sufragar la mayor parte de sus necesidades
En un sentido más profundo esas personas -que por lo general se agrupan en familias y en un pequeño territorio- no solo establecen relaciones armónicas entre sí sino que comparten una visión ecológica que les permite brindar un futuro viable para las siguientes generaciones
Para brindar acceso a todas las personas GiroGlobal abre sus puertas a cualquiera de las visiones de Comunidad Sustentable mientras se mantenga el caracter colectivo pues un grupo o comunidad garantiza estabilidad, empoderamiento, crecimiento humano y una forma de cultura
Para garantizar los intercambios MEI es importante comenzar por un grupo de personas ya que esto potencia el ánimo, la energía, la difusión, la producción y el consumo organizados
Establecer contacto con los grupos o comunidades existentes es extender vasos comunicantes que en un momento determinado producen una explosión de producción y consumo que van a hacer crecer y desarrollar la Red
La estrategia fundamental de GiroGlobal consiste en integrar los recursos y oportunidades de unas Comunidades, con recursos y oportunidades de otras Comunidades y para lograrlo ha generado mecanismos para detectar y registrar grupos y comunidades, dinamizar sus procesos de creación y desarrollo y establecer los dispositivos para el intercambio de Materia Energía e Información
¿Cómo se organizan las Comunidades Sustantables?
Como una de las dificultades para llegar a fluidos intercambios MEI es el escaso o nulo conocimiento que unas comunidades tienen de las otras así como las distancias que las separan, GiroGlobal está haciendo un vasto inventario de comunidades y grupos organizados dentro de una cercanía territorial
Cuando el sistema de comunicación de GiroGlobal encuentra en una región el grupo de comunidades capaces de abastecer las necesidades de todas ellas, se informa a todas las demás Comunidades y a partir de allí se inicia un proceso de auto-organización en la región
Cada región debe constituir un Consejo compuesto por representantes de todas sus Comunidades para trazar políticas y estrategias sobre los intercambios entre todas las comunidades de su región y prepararse para establecer intercambios con otras bio-regiones
Ese Consejo es el que inscribe en GiroGlobal su región como una bio-región con capacidad para auto sostenerse y responder a los requerimientos de otras bio-regiones de su país y del mundo
En el momento en que existan varias bio-regiones en un país se creará el Consejo Nacional de Giro -Giro-país- que tomará todas las decisiones de GiroGlobal en su respectivo país
Cuando haya un número suficiente de Consejos nacionales se conformará el Consejo Global de Giro que será el máximo organismo de toda la red de Comunidades Sustentables
¿Cómo se crean las Comunidades Sustentables? ¿Cómo entro a Participar?

What is Giro?
The acronym Giro comes from the Spanish Grupo Integrador de Recursos y Oportunidades -Integrating Group for Resources and Opportunities
GiroGlobal is a global network of Community Organizations which, through direct exchanges of materials, energy and information, enables sustainability and prosperity for the present and guarantees a planet-friendly future for the next generations
GiroGlobal grew out of the desire to have a simple model of exchange between Communities of goods and services produced, made or acquired. This wish has come from many regions of the world, through the attempts of academics, communities and organizations, to develop such a model based on the ideals and principles of the new economy, consciousness awareness, social creativity and complexity
There is no need for intermediaries in this model, which allows for respectful, humane relations and for wealth to be returned directly or kept in the hands of those who produced it
In other words, non-profit communities or organizations guarantee on one hand stability and responsibility that an individual cannot offer. On the other hand, they neither require nor expect the profit margins associated with for-profit companies and businesses
For this reason, GiroGlobal has chosen to implement its model with groups and collective organizations that are organized along sustainable communities’ principles.

Winning with Giro
As an Administrator, you may register in GiroGlobal’s network Project Bank an idea for a product, a service, a project or even a creative idea being developed
As the Administrator of this idea, you receive a percentage of the selling price of the product (for your time, research and development)
These earnings are set either by GiroGlobal or your Community depend/… on the sales volume of the product or service
As a Producer of a good or service for your Community, determine your costs per unit - including a small personal earning
In calculating your costs of production and the sale price, remember that your Community will add a small increase relating to administrative and transport costs, in order to keep the product’s selling price to the other Communities lower than the average market price
As a Provider - According to GiroGlobal’s philosophy, we are all Producers of something. However, if what you produce is not of interest to the network, then you can find something that is not produced by your Community at a better price and a quality than on the market; suggest it to your Community for use and for distribution to the network at a price which includes a small increase which becomes your earning
As a Contact - If you find a Provider of a good or service accepted by your Community and by the network, you will receive a small percentage from both the Provider and your Community
The same applies if you find a Provider whether from inside or out of the network. The added percentage should be clearly stated and all members of your Community should be aware of it so no … or misunderstanding
As an Administrator - to publicize / market a project or a good; take an idea from the project bank and make it viable; keep up to date with it; ensure quality and consistency. You earn a small percentage for each unit sold through the network
As a Member - As the volume of sales of your Community’s goods and services increase, you will receive part of the profits
Investor - There is an Investment Fund in each Bioregion… receives significant returns on your investment
Seller or Distributor - selling outside the network in the first while until a certain level of volume builds up
Normal market prices will prevail for any sales outside the network, which will also ensure that speculators and intermediaries can not take advantage of the situation of more favorable prices within the network
Consumer - win through savings, quality, health…
Everyone can be a winner with Giro. Not only do we mean financially, but also well-being, friendships, dignity and prosperity – for ourselves, our families and our friends
GiroGlobal’s Integrated/Complete Training System “Give your life a turn around / Turn your life around”
To join GiroGlobal, each person must register with a sustainable Community, and in so doing, participates in the training workshops offered by the network either virtually or in person
The workshops are recreational and offer experiential learning. Instead of an obligation, people will see these as an appealing alternative for training and development through rest and relaxation
GiroGlobal’s training workshops aim to bring a greater awareness to members of the profound paradigm changes that have occurred since the end of the 20th century, and to affirm a more harmonious future for human beings.
